The EU ignored Murdoch, so he backed Farage, resuscitated the Far-Right (which had been all but defeated) & threw Britain under the side of a red bus, turning our once respected & influential country into an isolated, weak & divided Little England, at the mercy of foreign powers.
He's done the same in the USA: Fox News has helped resuscitate white supremacism & put THE most unsuitable man imaginable at the helm of a global superpower, turning America into a racist, paranoid, delusional & completely divided global laughing stock, on the verge of civil war.
Murdoch's propaganda justifies grotesque levels of wealth inequality.

Since 1989, the USA's top 1% INCREASED their wealth by $21 TRILLION, while the bottom 50% LOST $900 billion.

In the UK, since 2009, Britain's richest 1,000increased their wealth by nearly £500 BILLION.
His global Media Empire protects & strengthens the rich & powerful, while exploiting & dividing the weak & vulnerable. His Media Colonialism has profoundly shaped the post-war world, & now the Global Tech giants, who represent exactly the same interests, are taking up the mantle.
John Major on Rupert Murdoch & EU policy:

"It is not very often that someone sits in front of a Prime Minister & says to the Prime Minister 'I would like you to change your policy, & if you don't change your policy, my organisation cannot support you'."
